AlphaTrend is a brand new indicator which I’ve personally derived from Trend Magic and still developing

In Magic Trend we had some problems, Alpha Trend tries to solve those problems such as:

1-To minimize stop losses and overcome sideways market conditions. 2-To have more accurate BUY/SELL signals during trending market conditions. 3- To have significant support and resistance levels. 4- To bring together indicators from different categories that are compatible with each other and make a meaningful combination regarding momentum, trend, volatility , volume and trailing stop loss.

according to those purposes Alpha Trend: 1- Acts like a dead indicator like its ancestor Magic Trendin sideways market conditions and doesn’t give many false signals. 2- With another line with 2 bars offsetted off the original one Alpha Trend have BUY and SELL signals from their crossovers.

BUY / LONG when Alpha Trend line crosses above its 2 bars offsetted line and there would be a green filling between them SELL / SHORT when Alpha Trend line crosses below its 2 bars offsetted line and filling would be red then.

3- Alpha Trend lines -act as support levels when an uptrend occurs trailing 1ATR (default coefficient) distance from bar’s low values -conversely act as resistancelevels when a downtrend occurs trailing 1ATR (default coefficient) distance from bar’s high values and acting as trailing stop losses the more Alpha Trend lines straighter the more supports and resistances become stronger.

4- Trend Magic has CCI in calculation Alpha Trend has MFI as momentum, but when there’s no volume data MFI has 0 values, so there’s abutton to change calculation considering RSI after checking the relevant box to overcome this problem when there is no volume data in that chart. Momentum: RSI and MFI Trend: Magic Trend Volatility: ATR, Trailing STOP: ATR TRAILING STOP Volume: MFI Alpha trend is really a combination of different types…

default values: coefficient: 1 which is the factor of trailing ATR value common period: 14 which is the length of ATR MFI and RSI

Wish you all use AlphaTrend in profitable trades. Kıvanç Özbilgiç
